Hicas lock bar
Autobahn 88 FMIC with hard pipes
Autobahn 88 Tubelar manifold
Autobahn 88 Turbo elbow
Bride sidemount seat subframe

I also took the Rota GTR's off, as I personally feel 18's are too big for an R32, so I'm eventually gonna replace them with some wide 17's :cool: In the meantime the 16in 8J ET38 Enkie's off my old RX7 will do. I actually think it looks kinda cool as it is, maybe get them spacered out a touch until I find some 17's I like/have the money for them.

As you can see, the Enkies are sitting a bit weak atm :(

I'll picked up some Tein coilovers last week, so its just a case of fitting the Hicas lock bar, manifold, elbow & FMIC, change the coilpacks to Driftworks Wasted spark Remote coilpack kit, then get it mapped. Then it should be good enough for some sideways action :D So pics and videos to follow

I thought I'd keep you guys posted on progress incase you wanted anymore drifters for anymore shows you might be putting on this year.

Bastard! I looked at this on DW and reeeeeeeeeeeeally wanted it. Looks a great '32

[bell]

nice motor dude
you got any s13 bits lieing around?

[griffo20022]

Those Enkeis look mint on there bud! I take it your gonna be spacing them out?

Very nice car bud!

[bell]

oh and noticed the drifters comment im sure we could use some lol as we arent quite up to spec yet

[Bozwell]

looks sweet mate and loving the enkies

[turbo-tastic]

Cheers all,

Didn't reaslise there were some DW regulars on here :)

The only S13 bits I have are boring stuff like PAS pump, mudflaps and passenger side mirrors etc.

The enkies are only temporary until I find some wide 17's to replace them. Which cant happen til I sell my 18" Rota's GTR's.

[Brycey]

Already got plans for a drift team this year chap, so watch this space ;) Maybe even making a few DWYB appearances, although working in Southampton during the week makes weekday drift day trips to the pod a real killer :(
Got my first TDSW on saturday though, so should get some action shots of the R32 at last :)

fair few of us here mate lol obvious route once a rear wheeler is obtained is d.w or t.d ;)

There's no turning back either. RWD for life :nod:
